Lady in White

this is a dream/nightmare

I am the lady in white
Divine being
Risen from waters
Of nightmares deep and dark
With a sword that cuts
Blade moving through life
Flames meet crimson skies
Snowy colours blazened with red
Darkened shadows
Chased by bright lights
Not saving from destiny
Where we all shall go
Following like zombies
To the grave with compulsion
No matter if you think
You are better than me
You will not escape
Being afraid of things
You cannot see.

Hi, I'm just reading all the poems entered into the picture comp and I really liked this one. I prefer the shorter, more direct style which you've got here. It's cafted so well with carefully chosen words and leaves me inspired. :) Thank you for entering it into my competition! ~ Nix

Great picture and poem. Its got a great dark feel to it. I like the imagery and the line "Flames meet crimson skies Snowy colours blazened with red" is my favorite.

Your sounds of fear are a truthful thing, imposed on all. It was a nice piece of work.

"No matter if you think
You are better than me
You will not escape"

Excellent - the darkness and fear that resonate in these words is wonderfully frightening..........

Well written, and again - excellent imagery.

Well done!!

How well you describe the evil we crated (Risen from waters
Of nightmares deep and dark ) driving us into hell.

The imagery is superb.

I like it. Sinister. Menacing. That which we want turns out to be something we may not want. Cracking picture also. I like the contrasts. Red, black and white are a heady mix.

A compelling and thought provoking poem.

The emotion behind each word and sentence is very powerful

You have creatively dealt with a very sensitive subject matter

Keep writing and Well Done!
